Just north of bullhead city, lake Mead national recreation area (nra) offers a wealth of things to do and places to go all through the year. with 1.5 million acres, it is twice the size of rhode island. of america's four desert ecosystems, three meet in lake Mead nra: the Mohave, the great basin and the sonoran deserts. as a result, this seemingly barren area contains a wide variety of plants and animals, some of which may be found nowhere else in the world.

blue Mesa recreational rancH
nowHere is tHe awesoMe beautY of the rocky Mountains’ western slope more magnificently defined in nature as in the curecanti national recreation area, home of blue Mesa recreational ranch. at an elevation of 7,500 ft., the resort is just a “stone’s throw” from the waters of blue Mesa reservoir. this 26mile long lake, with its 96 miles of shoreline, is colorado’s largest and longest lake. it’s setting — an eroded volcanic landscape — gives it a distinctly unique quality. for fishing enthusiasts, blue Mesa reservoir is one of colorado’s most well-stocked fishing lakes with two marinas — elk creek and lake fork. breathtaking scenic drives in this area reveal such wonders as the black canyon of the gunnison river. for its width, the dramatic 55-mile long canyon is the deepest abyss in the world. from its sheer walls — only 1,300 feet apart — this great chasm plunges well over a mile to the churning river below. Just a few miles south of nearby Montrose is the ute indian Museum built on the farm of chipeta, the wife of the ute chief ouray, who accompanied him on his peacemaking trips to washington until his death in 1881. she lived until 1924 on this farm which now contains a wealth of ute artifacts and dioramas which reflect the full and rich history of these colorado indians. north of the resort, in a picturesque mountain setting, is crested butte, a designated national Historic district that charmingly reflects its origin as a gold and coal mining town. for archeological enthusiasts, the clarence Hurst Museum in gunnison displays one of the finest archeological collections in colorado. challenging mountain golf courses are nearby, as are exciting and adventurous river rapids. with horses and horseback riding as featured amenities, blue Mesa hosts its guests to a total western setting.

YonaH Mountain caMping rv resort
in tHe nortHeast georgia Mountains, not far from the chattahoochee river, Yonah Mountain camping resort is so close to Yonah Mountain that it has a hiking trail leading from the camp up the mountain. Mount Yonah’s rocky face keeps a watchful vigil over the communities of cleveland and Helen. in cleveland you may happen upon a “birthin'” at babyland general Hospital, home of the cabbage patch kids. the special world here combines fantasy and reality in one of georgia’s most popular tourist attractions. specially trained “doctors and nurses” will introduce you to the delightful world of xavier roberts, creator of the cabbage patch kids. Just up the road from cleveland is the tiny alpine village of Helen, a storybook village in a peaceful valley surrounded by the blue ridge Mountains. bavarian-style shops line the streets and cobblestone alleyways; dirndl and lederhosenclad townspeople offer southern-style hospitality; restaurants prepare delicious wiener schnitzel, roulade and wursts; and the sounds of festive polka music fill the air as visitors stroll along the banks of the chattahoochee river. Helen was once a small lumber town, then one day a group of business people wanting to revitalize the area developed the idea for the bavarian village. the rest is history. today, more than 20 years later, alpine Helen is truly a delightful touch of europe in georgia’s blue ridge Mountains. this charming hamlet is home to over 200 specialty shops and 35 annual events, including the largest oktoberfest celebration in georgia. east of dahlonega and cleveland lies Habersham county, where vacationers have satisfied the urge to get away from it all since the 1700’s. out of the hills of Habersham flows the chattahoochee with rapids for tubing and canoeing, and calmer waters downstream for fishing. for water sports enthusiasts, the lakes of burton, lanier, rabun, and chatuge offer boating, skiing, swimming, and fishing.

deep in georgia’s Historic old south, southern trails rv resort offers a “certain serenity” with its sites spread among the trees of a pecan grove. this area of the state is one of the richest in historical attractions, many within easy day-trip distances from the resort. the Jimmy carter national Historic site is in the plains (ga) depot, carter’s former campaign headquarters. it houses memorabilia and exhibits from the campaign and presidential years. the area was also home to franklin delano roosevelt. from a modest home in warm springs, this 4-time u.s. president ran the federal government during one of the nation’s most turbulent times. preserved much as it was when roosevelt died here on april 12, 1945, the little white House features original furnishings, personal artifacts, and the famous unfinished portrait which was being painted when the president suffered a fatal stroke. callaway gardens, which neighbors franklin d. roosevelt state park on the west, is perhaps the nation’s finest example of ecological development. this 2,500-acre forest and garden setting opened in 1952 to save from extinction the rare prunifolia azalea, a bright red variety growing only within a 100-mile radius of pine Mountain. now over 13 miles of biking, hiking or driving trails meander through the woodlands and formal gardens featuring 700 varieties of azaleas and a Horticultural center. nearby Macon county is the heart of georgia’s Mennonite country, where visitors experience first-hand Mennonite culture, crafts and food. while manicured working Mennonite farms dot the countryside, driving tours of Montezuma and oglethorpe feature antebellum homes from the county’s earlier era. boating and fishing are popular at nearby lake blackshear on the flint river.

Hidden valleY rancH
nestled in tHe HigH desert along the foothills of cookes range, Hidden valley ranch is a quiet refuge in a dramatic setting. no trains or highways, just 7,000 acres of open range framed by endless skies, a setting that makes it truly one of the hidden treasures of the southwest. the absolute tranquility, diverse wildlife and stark beauty, invite you to stay and enjoy the ranch, while a wealth of sights and activities beckon to you from the surrounding area. the ranch is only ten minutes from historic deming, chile capital of the world. the deming luna Mimbres Museum offers insights into native culture, including renowned Mimbreno indian pottery. exploration in any direction offers more insights into the area's rich cultural, historical, and geological heritage. silver city, forty-five minutes northwest of deming, is a quiet town that is home to many local artists and artisans. it is also the gateway to the gila national wilderness, the nation's first designated wilderness area and the site of lake roberts and the gila cliff dwellings national Monument. Here visitors search for the secrets of the peoples who inhabited and forsook the dwellings in the last 2,000 years. close by are the catwalk, providing dramatic views of sheer rock walls and the whitewater river, and the city of rocks state park, where forces of nature have sculpted their own version of a fossilized city. three other state parks: spring canyon, rock Hound, and pancho villa provide rich scenery, distinct wildlife, botanical gardens, historical sites, and a chance to search for and keep semi-precious stones. the abundance of rock hounds in the area spurs annual rock shows (in March and december). other favorite local events include the annual great american duck races (august), southwestern new Mexico state fair (october), monthly archery and sporting clays tournaments, and nightly stargazing. with the abundance of things to see and do at a ranch that thinks of guests as family, you could find yourself returning often.

Traveling with Kids
“are we there yet?” those familiar words can drive parents into a serious case of travel fatigue. once the kids have tired of their store-bought games, try a few of these interactive diversions:
• alpHabet gaMes look out the window for stores, road signs, etc. that start with the letter “a.”
Move on to “b” and go through the alphabet.You can also play this game by listing cities, animals, food — the choices are endless.
• scavenger Hunt give kids a list of things to look for during the drive. the lists can be modified for the type of scenery and the age of children.
• twentY Questions think of a person, place or object. kids take turns asking yes/no questions (up to 20) until someone is able to guess what the secret is.
• word gaMes parents think of a word and kids give the opposite. words with the same meaning can be substituted.

tennessee’s Mountain plateau is home to breckenridge lake resort where guests are offered a variety of tourist attractions as well as a taste of the great outdoors. not only is it situated midway between knoxville, nashville, and chattanooga, but it’s just south of the cumberland Mountain state park and near the catoosa wildlife Management area. in crossville, be sure to visit the Historic Homesteads tower Museum in a stone tower built in the late 30’s. the tower was used as the administrative offices for 250 families involved in the cumberland Homestead project when franklin roosevelt was president. the museum exhibits photographs, documents, and items from that era as well as a view of the original homesteads in the “showplace of the new deal.” take a drive south to pikeville and absorb the magnificent scenery in the 20,000-acre fall creek falls state resort park where deep chasms and a 256-foot waterfall are just some of the park’s highlights. if you’re interested in science and recent history, the hour’s drive east to oak ridge will be worthwhile.this city was built specifically for the personnel of the clinton engineer works during world war ii. the works and their Manhattan project were instrumental in the development of the first atomic bomb and the invention of the nuclear reactor. the only government-owned reactor that is regularly open to the public, it was declared a national Historic landmark in 1966. nearby knoxville has gained fame as the home of the university of tennessee, host of the 1982 world’s fair, and headquarters for the tennessee valley authority.today the tva has 30,000 employees and oversees fifty dams. a map of surface rocks, specimens of marine fossils and 12,000 year-old native american artifacts are part of the tennessee river valley display at the frank H.

tHe town of rockport is a picturesque seaside community famous as an artist colony and one of america’s largest birding areas. nearby islands serve as the nesting and breeding grounds for thousands of migratory birds.the aransas national wildlife refuge, 36 miles to the north, is a wintering ground of the near-extinct whooping crane. Just three miles north of rockport is the elaborate fulton Mansion state Historic structure that features gas lights, central air conditioning, forced-air heating, and hot and cold running water—conveniences totally unheard of when it was built in 1876. to the south of the resort is port aransas, a quaint fishing village on the northern tip of Mustang island. the waters of the gulf of Mexico to the east, and corpus christi bay to the west, provide excellent mackerel, croaker, and flounder fishing. when you see the two-mile seawall in the heart of the business district, the white-sand beaches nearby, and sailboats and deep-sea fishing in the bay, it’s easy to figure out why beautiful corpus christi has been called the “sparkling city by the sea.” one of the major attractions in corpus christi is the texas state aquarium, where more than 250 species of native gulf sea life live together in more than 350,000 gallons of seawater. featured are the re-created flower gardens coral reef and an artificial reef grown around an offshore oil rig, inhabited by moray eels, sharks, and stingrays. stretching 113 miles from corpus christi to the Mexican border, padre island is said to be the longest barrier island in the world. the padre island national seashore covers most of the island and is reputed to be one of the last natural seashores in the united states. the long expanse of beaches affords an excellent opportunity for sun bathing, beach combing, swimming, surfing, shelling, and fishing.

More than 2,500 exotic animals from throughout the world roam free on 850 acres of plains, hills, and canyons. a seven-mile safari trail drive introduces animals in natural habitats. Highlights include a restored tonkawa indian cave with a 70-ft. waterfall, petting zoo, animal nursery, and frontier town replica. the texas ranger Hall of fame and Museum at fort fisher is a popular attraction you can visit in waco, just about 30 miles south of the resort.the facility is a replica of the original texas ranger fort that was established in 1837. the displays commemorate the history and heritage of the texas rangers, and it also houses a famous collection of guns and weapons from the old west along with native american artifacts and western art. waco is also home to the dr. pepper Museum housed in the original 1906 bottling plant and listed on the national register of Historic places. a waco chemist, r.s. lazenby, created the original formula for dr. pepper in 1884, and to this day it has remained virtually unchanged.

Who Wants to Cook?
tHere are lots of tHings you’d rather be doing than standing over a stove during your rv vacation. Here are a few tips to make that necessary evil a little more bearable:
freeZe, freeZe, freeZe!
1. before you even leave home, brown hamburger, slices of chicken and strips of pork or bacon. store in freezer bags or containers for on-the-road spaghetti, stir fry, chicken ala king, and other favorite meals that will be a snap to prepare. 2. Many easy recipes freeze well. Mix up a batch of burritos and roll them in plastic wrap; cook up a kettle of chili and store in individual serving size containers. 3. vegetables are no exception. chop up onions or bell peppers and freeze them in plastic bags. press them flat so you can easily chop off what you need later. 4. wine (yes, wine) freezes nicely for sautéing. pour into ice cube trays and pop out for cooking. 140

in tHe Heart of wasHington’s cascade range, lofty peaks provide the backdrops for this premier destination resort on the cowlitz river. the beauty of the resort and surrounding grandeur combine to invite everyone to explore and enjoy all that nature has to offer. between Mount st. Helens volcanic national Monument to the south, and Mount rainier national park to the north, the park is perfectly situated for exploring and immersing yourself in two very different landscapes. the towering peaks and glaciers of the 14,411-foot Mount rainier defy description, especially when viewed from the breathtaking sunrise area. the still towering peak of a diminished Mount st. Helens is eclipsed only by the ravages of the volcanic eruption that devastated this area in 1980. each mountain tells its own fascinating stories of power, endurance, and life. as impressive as these scenes are, they represent only a portion of the vistas and opportunities of this area. over sixty lakes and rivers offer boundless opportunities for swimming, fishing, boating, and other water sports. throughout the area and within the park you can immerse yourself in the lush, green woods that are the trademark of the northwest. the woods of the northwest are more than just scenery, though. they were and are a source of timber, essential to the development of early settlements and the mainstay of many modern industries. in nearby Morton, the annual loggers Jubilee celebrates both traditional and modern logging skills and showcases some of the world’s finest competitors. during the second weekend of august, contestants impress spectators with their strength and agility as they challenge each other in multiple events, including speed climbing, tree topping, and log rolling (known as birling). of course, the more common recreational opportunities also abound nearby, including golfing, rafting, hiking, skiing, and hang-gliding. if you’re looking for a resort that appeals to the whole family, this is it.
Maple grove resort–k/M
situated on tHe cowlitZ river in the beautiful cascade Mountains of washington, Maple grove resort offers the best of camping accommodations and a variety of activities for your enjoyment. this mountainous area is in the northern part of the gifford pinchot national forest, 1,299,546 acres of mountains, meadows, caves, canyons, streams, and lots of beautiful scenery. Many varieties of animals and birds, as well as salmon and trout, make their home in this forest. on the eastern edge of the forest is Mt. adams, a glacier-clad, 12,276-foot peak with fields of wild huckleberries surrounding it. every year in the late summer, thousands of pickers visit the mountain and forest. located on the western rim of the forest is Mt. st. Helens, the historic site of one of nature’s greatest catastrophes. once one of washington’s snowcapped crown jewels, its eruption in 1980 devastated the surrounding area and made access to it very limited. today, the crater at Mt. st. Helens can be seen from a tour helicopter or airplane or through telescopes from the deck of a visitor center facing the volcano. to the north of the forest and the resort is a striking landmark of the pacific northwest, extraordinarily beautiful Mt. rainier. the towering volcano is the largest single-peak glacial system in the contiguous united states. rising over 14,000 feet and often visible for 100 miles in any direction, the splendor of the eternal snows on its peak and the cap of glacial ice make it an extremely impressive sight. nearby eatonville is the home of the northwest trek wildlife park, where many species of wild animals can be seen roaming freely in the wilderness. in olympia, you’ll want to see washington’s capitol building, the fifth tallest all-masonry domed building in the world. while in the capital city, be sure to visit the state capitol Museum, farmer’s Market, olympia brewery, and the nisqually national wildlife refuge.

tHe klallaM indian word, seQuiM, means “calm waters,” and that is exactly what awaits you on your vacation stay at diamond point resort. enjoy some relaxation in the beautiful northwest with its olympic Mountains, puget sound, canadian san Juan islands, and an array of outdoor activities nearby. besides fishing, golfing, mountain hiking, and visiting the beach while you are in sequim, you will want to visit the dungeness national wildlife refuge. within the refuge is dungeness spit, one of the longest natural sand spits in the nation. five miles northwest of town is the olympic game farm, home to animals used in television and movie filming. as you drive along two loop roads in the 90-acre preserve you can see bears, bison, deer, elk, sheep, yaks, and zebras roaming about in the large fields. those enjoying gaming will want to try their luck at the tables or bingo parlor at the casino five miles east on us 101. from the resort you will have a spectacular view of the san Juan islands, but it is best to see them up close to appreciate their serenity and incredible scenery. from midMay to mid-october you can take a ferry ride from port townsend to the islands. the waters surrounding the 172 islands are an excellent place to see more than 90 orcas (killer whales), countless seals, dolphins, and porpoises in their natural habitat. to the southwest of sequim is olympic national park, one of the state’s most popular tourist attractions. the nearly one million-acre scenic wilderness contains lush rain forests, glaciers, lakes, and streams. to the west you’ll find fifty-seven miles of unspoiled shoreline along the pacific ocean. Just a few miles from the sea, rugged glaciered mountains rise above narrow forested valleys. some of the more than 600 miles of trails that intersect the park take you by forest floors covered with ferns and crystal clear streams adjacent to giant coniferous trees, some of which are believed to be at least 500 years old.

at tHe base of the wind river Mountain range in western wyoming, wind river view campground is a 10acre paradise for everyone who loves the great outdoors. antelope, deer, elk, and moose abound, and numerous fishing lakes and streams are just a short drive away. because the resort is so close to bridger-teton national forest, visitors can see 3,439,809 acres of wooded area, several live glaciers, an outstanding example of a geologic landslide, and the state’s highest mountain, gannett peak. if float trips and beautiful scenery are what you enjoy, be sure to take a trip with an experienced guide down the exciting white-water rapids of snake river canyon south of Jackson. while you’re in the area, take time to drive through Jackson Hole, a 50-mile long, high mountain valley. Many large mammals and the rare trumpeter swan are among the wildlife inhabiting this area. to the east, and just outside of the bridger-teton national forest is lander, the county seat of fremont county, a county as large as some of the states to the east. although grazing livestock is its chief role, it is also an important habitat for antelope, deer, elk, moose, and bighorn sheep. while in the lander area, you’ll want to stop at the sinks canyon state park. wildflowers, long stretches of white water, and a series of waterfalls can be seen along a 1.5 mile foot trail through a river gorge. don’t miss seeing where the popo agie river vanishes into a canyon wall cave and reappears in a rise one-quarter of a mile down the canyon in a clear, trout-filled pool. northwest of the town is where george parker, alias butch cassidy, operated a horse ranch. to the north of lander is the town of dubois, once a rendezvous point for trappers at the head of the wind river valley. today it’s bordered by cattle and dude ranches and is a headquarters for cattle outfits, tie hack crews, and river tie drives.

Just across tHe border into canada and a few miles north of vermont and east of new Hampshire, le camping de compton is at home in a captivating region of Quebec province known as the eastern townships. about 80 kilometers (49.7 miles) to the east of Montreal and about 100 kilometers (62.13 miles) south of Quebec city, the region is dominated by the province’s picturesque countryside of mountains, forests, and rolling farmland. the area abounds with attractions of all kinds. the charming country village of compton is known for its prolific orchards and is, in fact, one of the areas in Quebec where visitors can pick their own apples. one of the oldest and most unique nearby attractions is the saint-benoît-du-lac abbey. benedictine monks have lived a contemplative religious existence at the abbey since 1912. their lives are focused on their search for god and on prayer, balanced with study, physical work, and pastoral ministry to their guests. visitors can purchase such items as cheese and cider, books, tapes of music, etc. an equally popular attraction is the observatoire du mont Mégantic, an observatory for astronomical research and teaching. its 1.60-meter telescope is the largest of its type in north america. if it’s scenic beauty you want, you’ll find it in the parc de récréation du Mont-orford. dominating the landscape are the mountains of orford and chauve where hikers and wanderers can enjoy great panoramic views. the parc de la gorge de coaticook is home to a 50meter deep gorge, a phenomenon created by the coaticook river. a 169-meter long suspended footbridge over the gorge is the world’s longest (entered in the Guiness Book of Records).
